GENERAL DESCRIPTION
IIvlS International manufactures microcomputer systems in two basic
configurations: the 5000 and the 8000. They are differentiated by the size of
their flc::,py disk drives.
All 5000 systems use 5 1/4" floppy disk drives, and
8000 system:. use 8" floppy disk drives.
This manual examines the 5000 systems,
describing each system and each board in detail.
There are two different IMS 5000 systems, the 5000SX and the 5000IS
(Integrated System).
Each uses the same boards, but they are in different
enclosures.
IMS 5000SX systems are table top systems featuring an enclosure design which
presents a pleasing modern appearance while retaining rugged construction.
The
5000 SX has provisions for three 5 1/4" drives, allowing any combination of
floppy drives and Winchesters with up to two Winchester drives.
Nine unused
slots are available for system expansion.
If the system has a Winches ter drive,
the Winchester controller board occupies one of these free slots.
